do scp from my java application

[dasymill]

Hi,

I don't know if I in the right place, but I didn't find other forum.

I tried to use the method: Runtime.getRuntime().exec("scp -i the path of my publickey on the remote server usernameOnTheRemoteServer@remoteIPath of the file that I want to copy myComputerPath)

and I got exception: Cannot run program "scp": CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

can someone help me??

thnx.

This sounds like a UNIX/LINUX problem and not a Java one. Have you tried to run the exact command in the quotes at the command line?

If that 'does' work, have you checked to ensure that the Java application has permissions (whatever account it is running under) to the folder/file specified?
